i never heard of the book "feminine forever" but wow, how misogynist was that -

but then i've never had the urge to go on HRT either
thank god, goddess and goodness.

so many "cures" for things end up being worse than the illness
and when the condition isn't even an illness, i'd rather not give myself cancer
just so i can be "feminine forever"... which women are anyway, just being women.

the whole situation with women being used as paying guinea pigs as they were told that those horrible leaky silicone breast implants were fine to use is very similar. the implants were never tested to begin with, but were then used for decades before being removed from the market. now they areback on the market, supposedly "safe" now... yeah, sure they are.

i feel the same way about doctors as you do, very turned off by the whole system - they give you stuff you don't need half the time, or that makes your problem worse, and then you have to fight them for what you DO need. it's such a screwed up system.
